My friend has located his action, a Remington Model 7. In .350 Mag (currently). He says he has the barrel band front sight he wants on it. He is currently looking over possible choices for a barrel. He hasn't settled on that yet. The caliber he wants is .450 Marlin!

He also wants a single leaf rear sight (folding, I believe), and is looking for something like the old swing over scope mounts. Right now, he hasn't settled on the details for the stock.

I will be giving him a list of the fine smiths you have recommended, (including you Wildalaska

).

Thanks for all the help.
